'Magic with Mixes'
Extension Study Topic
Br ESTHER KIBMU
Each homemaker has to con
sldiT her family's preference In
relation to her budget, time and
energy and decide whether sh
should use a "Mix" or whether
she should start from scratch
That's the basic reasoning of
the Dceemoer extension Unit lea
son. "Magic With Mixes." The
project lesson U an attempt to
suggest tne many ways a home
maker can use the convenience
food to provide variety In bak
lng goods tor her family and still
plve to herseii a reeling of ere
atlve cooking.
We held project leader train
lng on "Mixes" In Board man on
November 15th at the Arnold
Hoffman home for Irrlgon and
Boardman leaders; and In Hepp
ner at the Fair Annex on No
vember 21 for the leaders of
Heppnor, Rhea Creek, Lena, lone,
and line City.
We used biscuit mix, muffin
mix, refrigerated biscuits, ginger
bread, hot roll mix, cake mix,
nd brownie mix for this lesson.
You should have been In on the
tasting bee afterwards!
From the biscuit mix we dem
onstrated a holiday yeast bread
and orange nut bread and cheese
nut bread rrom a muffin mix
Fruit bars from gingerbread were
also displayed. Devils food cake
mix was used as the foundation
of mint cookies and a brownie
mix for mincemeat brownies and
a brownie pie.
The many variations of the re
frigerated biscuits was shown in
a bubble loaf coffee cake, cara
way bread sticks, and a garlic
ring.
All of these ideas will prove
helpful for the holiday season as
well at for the whole year.
Why not call up the follow
ing hostesses and- tell them
you'd like to come to the De
cember Extension meeting.
All meetings start at 10:30
a. m.
